Title:Preference Change: Approaches from philosophy, economics and psychology Date2009-06-16 Language:English Format: PDF Size:2.83 MB | |
Description:The fact that preferences change is a pressing but unresolved problem for philosophy and the social sciences. Social scientists use preferences to explain agents' behaviour; philosophers use preferences to explicate value judgements. A lot of empirical research is invested into identifying people's preferences. However, the success of these endeavours is seriously threatened, because precise accounts of when and why preferences change are lacking. This volume answers to this need by collecting new essays from an interdisciplinary group of experts in the field. These essays, especially written for this volume, survey the newest approaches to preference change developed in the social sciences and in philosophy, and will serve as a platform for future research. They review some standard material, including the neoclassical preference model and doxastic preference change, time preferences and the debate over policy evaluation under preference change. However, the focus is on new research that is not widely known, such as conditional utilities, non-monotonic logics, complex systems models, inter-temporal choice approaches, etc. The book serves three purposes. It introduces undergraduate students to the current state of research on preference change, it gives graduate students and researchers in-depth insights into the state-of-the-art modelling techniques of different disciplines; and it points out to experts the lacunae in the literature and directions for future research. 格式; PDF 高清电子书。 程度:不适合新手和对行为经济学初感兴趣的读者,适合学过高级微观(决策理论)、对行为经济理论、决策理论感兴趣的读者。 这个出版社的书一般都是精品,确实偏好改变是行为经济学一个相当有挑战性的领域,包括偏好逆转等(环境保持不变),非常奇妙,建议感兴趣的可以看看,或者能做出一篇高质量的论文,也未可知。 -----------------------------------版主按 |
